  • Dual Analog Input Formats Accept Both Consumer RCA And Professional Balanced Terminal Block Sources
  • Wi-Fi Distribution Eliminates Dedicated RF Infrastructure While Leveraging Existing Network Investment
  • QoS And ToS Prioritization Maintains Audio Integrity On Shared Enterprise Networks
  • Public Address Override Broadcasts Emergency Announcements Across All Active Listening Devices
  • Windows Management Software Centralizes Configuration And Mobile App Branding From Single Interface
  • USB-C Power Delivery Simplifies Installation With Common Connectivity Standard

Designed for venues requiring assistive listening solutions, this compact server broadcasts synchronized audio to up to 500 listeners simultaneously using existing Wi-Fi networks. Integrators benefit from flexible input options—both consumer RCA and professional terminal block connections—allowing seamless integration into installed sound systems without additional analog-to-digital conversion hardware.

The platform scales horizontally by adding multiple units to increase channel count and user capacity, while optional LA-490 beacons enable location-based automatic channel switching throughout multi-zone facilities. Public address override capability ensures emergency announcements reach all connected devices instantly, regardless of selected channel.

Central management through Windows-based software allows complete control over server configuration, receiver checkout tracking, and mobile app customization including venue branding, channel graphics, and promotional content. The system supports both BYOD smartphone implementations and dedicated LWR-1050 receivers for compliance-mandated applications where personal devices cannot be guaranteed.
